Success

A sigh of relief...

After the very agonizing and grueling battle with the "poop", she finally was able to let it out...

It was difficult for me and my preggy wife to sleep while seeing her wake up every now and then last night. There were instances where she would fall half asleep trying to push hard while standing up and just barely putting her head on a pillow on top of the bed.

But, the good thing is, it's all over now... hopefully this serve as a breakthrough for her to finally eat more fibrous foods and take more than enough liquids aside from her favorite milk.

From this ordeal, I got to research some based remedies which we tried, which should work:

1. Diet change -  well this one failed for us.  We still can't convince her before this to try oatmeal, apple juice, prune juice.  What we did successful was to have her drink water much more than what she consumes... the trick? we used the measuring bars on her bottle as her goal... that she should drink two bars of water and made it a game everytime she needs to drink.  The result, more water consumption but still not enough to fight her constipation.
2. Laxatives - probably we made a mistake stopping her laxatives too early after we brought her to the hospital weeks ago.  So that's why, this occurred again.  
3. Suppositories - could be the one that really helped her, but after 5 hours of great ordeal?

The best remedy I guess is the first, so we'll make sure to work on her diet starting this time..
